Information Nicolas C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know any unusual behaviors you know. I really am not worried about this because of my daily work with new rescue dogs, but anything you would like to let me know please do.

Depending on if your dog wants to tire out with a run, walk, fetch, or tug of war I will figure out what they like the most pretty quick.

I love running more than your dog

Pet care experience

I run every morning and night and can match your dog’s pace on walks or jogs. With your approval, I will love to take your dog to dog beach(please let me know). Almost everyday I work with around 10-15 dogs disabled and rescues(the unstoppable dogs feel free to look them up). My daily work with disabled and rescue dogs has strengthened my patience and adaptability, and I take pride in providing calm, compassionate care for dogs with unique needs. Just being theese needs/ quirks to my attention (or I’m pretty good at figuring them out) and I can accommodate for your pup. Also I accept most bookings but I am very open to longer bookings to build a strong relationship with your pup for future bookings. My rates are a bit higher because I put everything into giving your dog the best experience. As an active 20-year-old who truly loves dogs, I’ll treat yours like my own. Since my family isn’t ready for another dog yet, caring for yours fills that gap. I’ll make sure they get plenty of adventure too—whether that’s exploring cool parks or hikes in laguna(if that is suitable for your dog), or enjoying a trip to the dog beach. I will watch any dogs but I highly encourage owners who have high energy and need a lot to tire them out because I will be the best sitter for your dog( and we will both have a blast).

Nicolas was AMAZING! We can’t recommend him enough! We have two dogs, one of which is more reactive, and Nick did an amazing job with both, they loved their stay, and he kept us in the loop and updated with all of their adventures together! We would highly recommend Nick for all of your pup’s needs!

My two large dogs stayed at Nicolas place for five days. The dogs felt happy there. Nicolas is a an extremely detail oriented person, noticing very small, but very important nuances in dog's behavior, health, habits. Not only he notices that, he also comes with the great suggestions. His communication was great. If you read this review, please make sure to give your business to Nicolas. He is one of the best people I ever left my dogs with.
